The University of Michigan, founded in 1817 in Detroit before moving to Ann Arbor in 1837, is among the oldest public universities in the country, and this view turns toward its campus in the Midwest's Michigan landscape. Ann Arbor grew up around the university, so the school's buildings, lawns and walkways became the town's center of gravity over the following decades. Images like this one document how a frontier-era college evolved into a large research institution that shaped both the city and the state. Look closely at the architecture and open grounds for clues about how the campus was planned and used in its day.
